I never learned about that period of US history, nor the Kindertransport of WWII.<BR/><BR/>I read a great book last year called RODZINA by Karen Cushman.

It is a chapter book, aimed mostly at 5th grade and up, but it might be a great book for read aloud or individual learning.Lady Shttp://lady.strathconn.comnoreply@blogger.com
